  The White Rabbit (WR) project started off to provide a sequencing and synchronization solution for the needs of CERN and GSI. Since then, many other users have adopted it to solve problems in the domain of distributed hard real-time systems. The paper discusses the current performance of WR hardware, along with present and foreseen applications. It also describes current efforts to standardize WR under IEEE 1588 and recent developments on reliability of timely data distribution. Then it analyzes the role of companies and the commercial Open Hardware paradigm, finishing with an outline of future plans.
